Default Vietnamese "jasmine" tea (new acquisition)

That's interesting. I've tasted many jasmine teas - some good, some
horrible, some just a way to give flavor to very cheap tea - but I've
never had to complain about subtlety. Could Vietnamese use "Jasmine"
in another sense, to indicate a nice aroma but not, necessarily, due
to the flower? Like jasmine rice?

Best,

Rick.
